The National City Chamber of Commerce together with the City of National City annually honor the men and women of service in the United States Navy during the Salute to Navy Luncheon.

National City’s Salute to Navy has been a longstanding tradition for the past 58 years. With strong ties to the Navy station, National City holds this event every year during the month of October and jointly celebrates the Navy’s birthday. This is the first and longest running event of its kind in the United States.
